Pregnant? Searching for a doula?

Let's face it, the cost of a new baby can be quite daunting, and no matter how much you may want a doula to attend your birth, the extra cost can sometimes seem impossible.

The most important part of interviewing and hiring doulas is that you are comfortable with her, that you click, and that you trust her to support and advice regarding your birth.

If you live in the Elizabethtown/Fort Knox area, and are looking for a low cost doula, please contact me and we can discuss prices and options. I firmly believe that every woman should have a doula at her birth, no matter her birthing preferences or financial situation.

I have attended two births; a ceserean and a home birth. I myself have had an induction which ended in an emergency c-section and went on to have an all natural VBAC with a wonderful midwife & doula. From my experiences and research during my pregnancies and after, I decided that this was what I wanted to do with my life. I want to help you succeed, and be there to support you through the wonderful birth experience you have imagined!

"If a doula were a drug, it would be unethical not to use it."

Only with trust, faith, and support can the woman allow the birth experience to enlighten and empower her.
Women's strongest feelings [in terms of their birthings], positive and negative, focus on the way they were treated by their caregivers.
